It's simple. Read it here!

Via the Star Wars Galactic Hunter Figure of the Day Blog: Reva (Third Sister, The Retro Collection). She's a Kenner-style figure that came with a pre-wrinkled cape, a pretty good lightsaber, and no eyebrows. I think Hasbro needs to drop the vinyl capes - Kenner did by 1982 - but otherwise, she's a pretty solid figure that you may even find on clearance right now. Read on!

Via the Star Wars Galactic Hunter Figure of the Day Blog: RC-1140 (Fixer, The Black Series) . If you got Hunter, or Boss, or Crosshair, you'll recognize a lot of the parts. Hasbro actually gave him a new helmet and a new backpack, but other than paint he's pretty much identical to Boss. Is he worth the upcharge? Well, you could wait for a sale these days. Read on!

Via the Star Wars Galactic Hunter Figure of the Day Blog: Death Watch Mandalorian (The Black Series). He has two blasters and a lot of gear, plus an articulated rangefinder. The glossy visor is great and the range of movement is no slouch - this is a good 6-inch figure you're not buying. Read on!

Via the Star Wars Galactic Hunter Figure of the Day Blog: Clone Captain Rex (The Bad Batch, The Vintage Collection). It's an Amazon exclusive that was really hard to order, and then marked down after it started to ship. The 4-pack is $55.09 as I write this. Read on!

Via the Star Wars Galactic Hunter Figure of the Day Blog: George Lucas (in Stormtrooper Diguise, The Black Series). Mine cracked right out of the box, and the helmet doesn't seem to fit - so if you're thinking maybe you would leave it in the box, I would follow that instinct. The head sculpt isn't bad, but it's clearly meant to be left in the packaging. Read on!

Via the Star Wars Galactic Hunter Figure of the Day Blog: Boba Fett (Droids, The Black Series). The first time Hasbro has released Vlix in the United States! He's on the packaging twice. There's also a Boba Fett in the box, but you'll take note of Vlix on the back and in the front flap. Also this is the 2013 Boba Fett figure painted to look like his animated armor, which is excellent, but Hasbro has proven they know Vlix exists so now they can make a figure... right?

(Coincidentally, Target revealed two more exclusive 3 3/4-inch Boba Fetts today, but I digress.)

Via the Star Wars Galactic Hunter Figure of the Day Blog: Koska Reeves (The Vintage Collection). As a repaint with a new head, she's kind of fantastic - articulation is good, paint is good, accessories are what they should be. I have no real complaints here. Read on!

Via the Star Wars Galactic Hunter Figure of the Day Blog: IG-88 (and Dengar, The Retro Collection). The droid shares parts with Hasbro's Kenner's IG-11, which means it's a much less sharp release than the original from the 1980s. However, the orange paint is much more generous - so at a distance, this is the one that looks better. If you get close, you'll see a lot of the sculpted lines aren't quite as impressive as an actual old IG-88 though. Even if you have an original, this is a variant that's arguably interesting enough to pick up.

Via Trash Compactor on Etsy: Panna Dragon (from the Holiday Special) - 3D Printed - Original Design by JLCreationsByJay. It's big! You can fit retro/vintage figures, or Vintage figures in there! The good news is that it's a big, cartoony creature based on the classic Star Wars Holiday Special design. The bad news is that assembly and paint are required. And it's expensive. And shipping isn't cheap.

Via the Star Wars Galactic Hunter Figure of the Day Blog: Dengar (and IG-88, The Retro Collection). His details are not as sharp as the original at all, but he can hold his blaster straight this time. That's arguably a big improvement in this Amazon exclusive figure set. The skin tone is somewhere in between the peachy and yellowy old faces you may have seen, with what feels like rock-solid construction and freely moving joints. Other than the fuzzy sculpted detail, Hasbro did a real good job here and the Kenner-style paint job turned out really well. And yes we have comparison photos with the originals. Read on!

Via the Star Wars Galactic Hunter Figure of the Day Blog: Axe Woves (The Vintage Collection). It's a body we've seen reused a few times, but with a new head and new deco - but that's fine, it's a good mold. Read on!
